Chapter Thirteen: Aurielle DuVall
His anger left faster than I could have anticipated. “I’m sorry… what did you say?”
I waved the form at his face. “I want a divorce. I want this marriage to end. So i can be free of you and your fucking hatred. I want
to get away from you. So sign the papers.”
Matthias was quiet, I think I’d finally done something to surprise him. But my omega knew it wouldn’t last. I knew it wouldn’t
last.
“A divorce? Because I didn’t believe your fake pregnancy? You realize you will have to prove you’re pregnant and that this child is
mine in front of a council of the wisest wolves?”
I snickered. “Oh really? I had no idea. Have you considered that I can prove it? Imagine standing in front of them, yelling about
how I’m faking my pregnancy when I have proof.”
He shot up out of his seat, and I stepped back out of fear. “So that’s why, huh? To humiliate me and ruin my chances of becoming a council member? What proof do you have? Show me the proof that I am the father of your false pregnancy. Who did you bribe to fake the papers?”
I had never felt angrier in my entire life. “Sign the divorce papers. I, Aurielle Duvall, refuse to remain married to a cruel, cold, despicable husband such as yourself. I hope your next wife is treated better than me. But that till death do us part, is not for me anymore. I am done with you. This fucking marriage. Your constant hatred for me. I don’t care if this takes me a year, two years, sixteen years, I will divorce you, Matthias Crowe. I will end this marriage. Whether you want me to or not. Or I will DIE trying.” I hissed those words out with all the pent–up venom I’ve carried all my life.
All my life, I have been second to a sister who never loved me. My own parents chose to believe her over me. Well screw them, and
screw matthias. I’m done with this.
Matthias scoffed. “I am not signing this. I am not signing anything. This marriage is your punishment, and mine, for Nerissa. You
will not get happiness, and you will not get peace.”
I straightened. “You have two days to sign it, or I will file for a summons. And if I do that, you can forget being a council member. Because the entire pack, will know we’re going through a fucking divorce.”
Matthias slammed his fist on the table. “You… you finally stopped pretending. This is who you’ve always been.”
That cut my heart, or.. It would have had there been anything of my heart left. Matthias had shattered it all.
“Yes, I guess so. Sign those papers. We’re getting divorced, Matthias. You can’t stop it. You can’t punish me for something I
didn’t do.”
“You took her from me!” he yelled.
“Where is your proof?!” I shouted back. “Show me,” I repeated his words back to him. Because there is no proof. He and my parents just decided I was at fault because I survived. I threw my pen on top of the paper. “That was given to me by the council.

Rip it up, and I will file for a summons. Forty–eight hours, that is all you have to sign it. Be a
a man and do it.”

I turned and marched out of his office. I slammed the door behind me. I didn’t stop until I was in my room, where I held my
stomach, and the stress of the confrontation finally got to me. I feltelt tired. I felt… so done with him and everything.
